I got into work in Hamilton OK this morning, but from before 9.00am the snow has been piling down, so I packed it in at about 10.45am and got back to Larkhall on decidedly dodgy main roads - it was either that or get stranded! Hope you folks in the more rural areas as taking care - nastiest it's been so far. Thanks to the wee 106's low power and narrow tyres, the short (5 miles) trip wasn't too scary and kind of fun actually - but I wouldn't make a habit of it. The MINI would've been 'interesting' mainly in the 'Oh S**t' direction - even with the new tyres!
Stay safe, and if it's too bad, stay HOME!
well christine is walking home from work as the whole place has come to a stand still think i just got home in time !!!!
Got back from Stirling without too much of a problem however got stuck 50yds from my house due to there being snow about 18" deep!!!! Worst I have seen in my lifetime. Boys in the street came out and helped me to my drive ;)
Here are some more photos if my drive home. The first is outside police hq and the hospital !!

Please bear in mind that these are all priority 1 and 2 roads which are supposed to be ploughed and gritted :frown:

Attempted to go to Glasgow today.
Go to bottom end of Loch Lomond before being turned back by police, a lorry had overturned.
Boy were we impressed with the mini today:thumbs up::thumbs up:
No snow tyres and it behaved impeccably, in fact was doing better than some of the 4x4's and SUV's.
My daughter is flying into Aberdeen today, how bad is that area?
Main roads are OK, want me to pick her up :popcorn:
Thanks, but her sister and mother are doing the honours - soz for the off topic :Whistle:Quote:
